With two outs in the 9th inning and an 0-2 count on Joey Butler, Carlos Carrasco lost his no-hitter with a single that scored the only Rays run of the game. Whatever, he still put up a godly line of 8.2 IP, 1 ER, 1 Hits, 2 BBs, 13 Ks and was the start you've been waiting for all season from Carrasco. He expressed every element of his peripherals - 10.17 K/9, 1.94 BB/9, 2.76 FIP, .273 xFIP - that have made him one of the best buy low targets around, and you have to imagine that his ghastly 3.88 ERA will be creeping down through the final three months of the season. If you had any concerns before, they should be fully removed now as he carries you to the ship.
